AT&T TV subscribers lose service after power outage

Subscribers to AT&T's television service, U-verse, found themselves looking at static for
several hours today.

A power-related issue caused a loss of some TV channels, particularly some national cable
channels, AT&T officials said. The blackout lasted until mid-afternoon.

"Technicians worked to quickly resolve the issue and about 95 percent of impacted channels are
restored, with remaining channels coming back up," an AT&T Ohio spokeswoman said in an email
message early this afternoon. "We apologize for this inconvenience."
